The following quote is from "Written In My Own Heart's Blood" by Diana Gabaldon "Part One Nexus...4: Don't Ask Questions You Don't Want To Hear The Answers To" copyright © 2014 by Diana Gabaldon all rights reserved


The hands wrapped themselves in his shirt and jerked him to his feet. He managed to stand, and a wisp of air seeped into his lungs. Fraser's face was an inch from his. Fraser was in fact so close that Gray couldn't see the man's expression---only a close-up view of two bloodshot blue eyes, both of them berserk. That was enough. He felt quite calm now. It wouldn't take long.

"You tell me exactly what happened, ye filthy wee pervert," Fraser whispered, his breath hot on Gray's face and smelling of ale. He shook Gray slightly. "Every word. Every motion. EVERYTHING."

Gray got just enough breath to answer.

"No," he said defiantly. "Go ahead and kill me."

[> I love Jamie and John scenes. John is such a perfect urbane foil for Jamie's occasional savagery. John is capable of savagery also but on the battlefield. Maybe because he doesn't have the family and tenant responsibility that Jamie does. -- kgp, Mon, November 29 2021, 11:26:09

[> [> That’s a great thought. John loves and cares for his family, but he’s the second son. And he was THE definition of cool acceptance here! -- Kathy in PA, Mon, November 29 2021, 14:58:54
